Hello, are these batteries good for lower temperatures between 15F and 32F ?

I do not live in a climate that gets that cold and cannot tell you how it will perform at that temp range.

I used this battery at about 25F. Battery was in an outside pocket, so it was cold. Seemed like instead of 5 to 8 hours of shooting, I got only 4. I searched literature, and I found a guy who did some engineered tests. At temperatures in the range of 20-32F, he measured a 15% drop in number of shots. The battery should be brought up to a more normal temperature and recharged. Place in inside pocket next to body heat.

Should be no problem. But, depending on how low the temp is, it might take longer to warm up the battery. But in the end, any heat is better than no heat.

Yes it will! The battery in this pack is an AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat), and are capable of maintaining their charge in very cold climates. All batteries will have a lower capacity in the cold, so I would recommend keeping it inside, and fully charged for when you need it. I live in a milder climate, but even at 10 Degrees Farenheit, there is no difference in it.

According to Panasonic these cells will work up to -4F. Hard to say whether it will work in your trail camera at those temps as cold weather is hard for any battery. Another option is to use lithium cells but don't know if the higher voltage is safe for your camera.

Yes. In my experience with these batteries in UPS's, which are closed, heat is not a problem. They probably won't like a full discharge, so I suggest care in that regard.

I am using Rayovac Rechargeable Hybrid NiMH Batteries in my La Crosse Technology TX29U-IT 915 MHz Wireless Temperature Sensor. They gave absolutely no problems over the past three winters. Last week the outdoor temperature was aound 0 degree F (-18 degree C) at night. NiMH cells have much better performance than alkaline cells at cold (below 0 C). Most NiMH manufacturers spec their discharge temperature range down to -10 C. Sanyo Eneloop are spec'd down to -20 C. That does not mean they will fail at -21 C, just that performance will suffer more at lower temperature.

I got mine down to 39 degrees, but I have no experience with performance at that temperature.

Hmmm,good ques.These batt's are rated at 500cca's.They crank my 01'Hert with big-bore kit over very well.That being said,I have bght 3 of these Lightning Start batt's in the last 2 yrs and did have one fail.There is a 1 yr unconditional warr on these so the warehouse did replace mine free of charge. Okay battery for the price. Be on the look-out for a newly rel Yuasu 500cca battery,prolly a tad more money tho..........

I have not used them in an area colder than 50F, but being an LED light, these should work fine well below zero.

They only heat to 98 degree and batteries will only last about 8 hours depending on the temp the colder the less battery life and the wires are thin easy to break or chew throw

I have used mine in temperatures as low as 20 below zero (for a string of 5 days) and it functioned flawlessly. The one draw back is the battery life is somewhat reduced by the cold temps. Hope this helps.

they're just like other lead-acid batteries and will lose their charge quicker in the cold and also sustain damage. i suggest you find a warmer indoor place for your battery. if you're using it at a ski chalet you can either hook a heater up to keep it warm when you're not there, or just transport it around with you. remember tho it's quite heavy

It does really good 15-25 degrees but u still gotta layer up with thermals if it gets colder than that. U gonna have to put the settings on high so that the cold wont sink in.Battery charges fast like 30 min so i change them during my break n lunch. Get another battery if u outside all day. The battery won't last if u keep it on high.

Although I haven't experienced an LL reading, according to what I've read...regular alkali batteries will operate to about 25 degrees F. Below this they get too cold to generate enough power to give a temp reading. Lithium batteries will operate to about -4 degrees F. If the temperature is colder than this, the display will show LL.L until the temperature rise above -4. So it sounds like maybe the temp is too cold for the batteries of the digital thermometer to work properly. Don't know if that helps any.

These are cold weather resistant. The temperature in my area (Wisconsin) has dropped down into single digits and still worked just fine.

I am using 6 of them and we aim to have them at -20 C when they go on my head and usually leave them for 20 mins (they are between -13 and 0 when I take them off to be returned to the dry ice).

Not sure about the low-end, but I have them installed in Orlando, FL. They've worked fine in temperatures as high as 105-degrees Fahrenheit, direct sunlight.
